Pick your project

Species-specific pages (deadlines, withdrawal data, showmanship timelines, relevant guides) are rolling out per the directory plan. The links below point to the most-relevant existing guide for each species today; dedicated species pages land next.

Local clubs

Kitsap has 40+ active 4-H clubs across animal, plant, STEM, and expressive arts projects. The full claim-a-club directory ships Q3 2026; in the meantime, the Kitsap County WSU Extension office maintains the current club list and matches new families to clubs that have open spots in their species of interest.

About this page

This is the first county hub in the sakAI 4-H directory. Other Washington counties (Snohomish, Pierce, King, Skagit, Yakima, Spokane, Clallam, Kittitas, Whitman, Lincoln–Adams) and species pages roll out next. Built mobile-first because that’s where parents actually use it.
